Mc Chouffe

On tap in a Providence resturant. Dark almost porter color. Fruity, sweet, spiced scent. Tastes similiar to scent except more of a sweet taste, maybe caramel and a smokey plum or grape. Very nice, will go back to drink again.

Fredagsbaren på biologi, Aarhus, Denmark Bottled Den Tatoverede Enke, København On tap Kandis-sweet and balanced with malt and hops

Bottle-Pours a deep, but slightly transparent mahogany body, with a nice beige froth sitting atop, leaving nice lace. Spicy, fruity nose with molasses, brown sugar, cherries and plum, with a touch of wood. Sweet Belgian candy sugar is up front, with peppery spices, some wood smoke, cherries and prunes. Quite effervescent and refreshing given the style and ABV. High drinkability. Well crafted.

Bottle, label is different from what is shown here on RB and reads this is a ’Artisanal Belgian Brown Ale’ not a Scotch Ale, this gushed over when I popped the cap, pours a slightly hazy brown and ruby with floaties, has a good size creamy off-white chocolate shake like head that deflates a bit, and leaves creamy lacing on the glass, aromas of dark bread and malt, raisin, plum and brown sugar sweetness, chocolate and faint caramel, I did not find any smoke or peat aromas, taste of dark malt and bread with plum raisin and fruit, has a pepper spice bite at the finish with alcohol warming in the throat, the pepper and alcohol linger on the tongue, a bit more alcohol then I expected for a Belgian strong ale of 8.5% alc., has a medium or less mouth feel with good carbonation that may cause this to feel light on the palate, this does not have the heavy, full or chewy feel of the other Scotchs I have had, this was a good Belgian strong ale but not like the Scotch as I was looking forward to, maybe the Belgian yeast makes a different Scotch? Certainly not what I expected.

Bottle. Dark brown pour with thick off white head. Aroma of brown sugar and roasted malts. Taste of sugar, malt with a nice even slightly smoky finish.

Tasted from 75cl bottle. Interesting bier pouring with good 3 cm head with rouge amber colour. Aroma tended to malt with pineapple. Flavours of roasted malt with pineapple. Fairly complex flavour, needed another sitting to explore it futher.

Clear copper with a khaki head. Nice, but mild spice, herbal smell with a caramel sweetness. Full bodied and smooth. Taste is caramel sweet bread with some pit fruits. What i found here was not what i expected which is what i usually find in beers from d’achouffe. 5247
